Idol Chatter - The Top Ten
Posted: Tue Mar 25, 2008 7:46 pm
For me, this was one of my favorite nights of the competition thus far. Lots of great stuff with minimal negatives. We're getting down to the nitty-gritty as they say.
Ramiele - I liked, not loved her performance of Alone. This is one of those songs I could listen to over and over again. She wasn't quite at the "A" level but she wasn't far off. I heard a couple of off-key notes but not too much damage was done.
Jason - For me, if Jason was booted I would have no problem with that. He's a likeable guy but his comfort zone of songs puts me to sleep, even if he does do them well. He won't leave yet, though.
Syesha - I don't know whose song it was that she sung but I thought it was terrific.
Brooke - I completely agreed with Simon. She should have just sung the entire number with only the piano accompaniment. It would have sounded better and would have raised her mark to a B+ from the B that I gave it.
Carly - Another of those songs that I could listen to ad infinitum and not get tired of it. She's got the Bonnie Tyler raspiness to her voice that I like. I liked her rendition even if she didn't really bring anything new to it.
Chikezie - I didn't know the song but he was OK. I much preferred his rendition of She's A Woman.
David - Very consistent, he is and I liked that he took it uptempo a bit this week.
Michael - Again I agreed with Simon in that this was his best performance to date.
Kristy - Perfect song choice for her. I caught a couple of pitchy spots but we know the road she should be going down and this was it. Also, her best performance of the season.
David C - This is the only contestant this year who CD I would actually go buy. What an outstanding rendition of Billie Jean. I am beginning to think that the other David may not have a lock on this year after all. I'm thinking David could actually do better than Daughtry in the real world.
Who will leave tomorrow - I think it will either be Chikezie or Ramielle.
